He is basically suggesting the idea that GPUs be buildable like PCs themselves.

 

For example, you can get a GPU motherboard with the PCIe connector on it. It would have a socket on it to put the GPU, for example, GK110 onto. And then be able to buy, for example, a Twin Frozr cooler for it.

 

I really have no idea what you're taking about, let alone asking about.

 

Are you asking why GPUs are not stand-alone PCs?

Thanks captain!  :D

 

Interesting idea, but won't work

Man, you're much more on that ball than I am today.

 

It would be a cool idea, but not entirely practical - I think the costs would run up quite a bit, @Rheinwasser.

It would be amazing, but it would probably cost way more and be bulkier :( Because you would need to make the motherboard of GPU universal and that would probably cause some problems because I believe die sizes are different.

Lenovo Y50 (i7-4710HQ, 1TB SSHD, 16GB RAM, 860m 4GB), Nikon D3300 (lenses: 18-55mm kit, Tokina 70-210mm vintage)

P.S. Sorry for my bad english :/

there are so many choices that you probably wouldn't need to and it would make it even harder for them to make good drivers. it would be cool though, because it means you could have a 780 lightning with decent ram

 

Just a short idea that came to my mind. Why are gpus not like normal pcs? Why cant You buy Mainboard rak and gpu seperately? Wouldnt that be cool? :)

Oh i forgot The cooler :-)

What I'm thinking, is that.. 
Couldn't you in fact (I mean, if you're skilled and talented to do it) just take the a GPU, Take off the PCB and sawer ( I have no idea what it's called ) onto the motherboard ?
That way, just have an extended motherboard, and you could make the 24-pin like.. a 38Ping to power everything ?
Also, by this, have a much lower profile platform, and make the cases it's used in, ALOT thinner ?
i mean, you would be able to put it inside a desk that was quite thin if you think about it o-o

Edit : Oh, and of course get a very slim / small PSU..

It would cost more and take up more space!

The size of the GPU will increase because it will need to have sockets for RAM and GPU core.

Sure, it would be bigger and bulkier, but it would still be cool :-)

ive we did so we would use motherboards with CPU, RAM, VRAM and GPU sockets instead so we can take away the PCB. or even puzzle motherboards that can be extended endlessly

So module the GPU as well?

 

This is a pretty interesting idea but I honestly think it would be adding a while new risk to PC building, considering a very small error can destroy the entire GPU.

 

a very small error can also destroy a psu. i dont say that all gpus should be like that, just a few high-end ones. :-)
